Our Nature Concierge leads guests on complimentary snorkelling adventures, kayak trips and nature tours, teaching about the plant, animal and marine ecosystems of Tiamo.

Andros is the largest of the Bahamas Out Islands and is considered to be the largest unexplored tract of land in the western hemisphere. Fewer than 8,000 people live on the island.

In the early 1900s, the land where Tiamo is built was known as the North Quarters  and was inhabited by freed slaves who primarily lived as farmers or sponge fishermen. They used handcrafted sailboats made on the beach to transport what they didn’t use to sell in Nassau.

South Andros is home to the world’s longest chain of linked blue holes, ecological treasures teeming with angelfish, stingrays, butterfly fish, barracuda, parrotfish, lobster, schools of jacks and French grunts, as well as corals and sponges. It is also the bone fishing capital of the world.

Affectionately called the “Big Yard,” the South Andros Barrier Reef is the third largest barrier reef in the world and one of the last remaining stable reefs in the Western Hemisphere. Here guests experience some of the best snorkeling and diving in the Bahamas. Divers who brag about “doing the Tongue” are referring to the area here where the reef drops nearly 6,000 feet into the Tongue of the Ocean.

Tiamo is accessible only by boat or seaplane. Guests can fly directly from Nassau or Fort Lauderdale to Congo Town International Airport on South Andros Island. Transferred by taxi to the dock for the final leg of the journey to Tiamo, guests  transfer to a small  ferry, navigated by a captain who likes to entertain his passengers with stories of the island.
